Previously-
Jessica- I've been outside with Quinton playing ping pong for a while I came in for some water.
Noah- oh I got you.
Noah went into the kitchen and came back to the living room with a water bottle.
Noah- Here.
He said smiling at me.
Jessica- Thanks.
I said returning the smile.
Blake- So what's up with you and Quinton?
Jessica- Nothing
I said taking a drink of the water.
Avani- Really Nothing?
Jessica- Yeah he's cool.
Blake- So Quintons in the friend zone?
He said laughing.
I felt uncomfortable so I motioned at Avani to help me out.
Avani- They've only known each other for a week.
I nodded my head agreeing with Avani and I think Noah saw how uncomfortable I was.
Noah- Hey Blake lets go work out a little.
He said getting them to leave out of the room. Then Quinton walked in.
Quinton- Hey you wanna just go for a swim.
Jessica- I don't know how to swim and I don't have a swimsuit.
Quinton- It'll be fine, don't even have to get all the way in.
Jessica- Sure, Avani you coming too?
Avani- Yeah I'll be out there in a sec.
I went outside and sat at the edge of the pool. While Quinton dove in and swam to the end of the pool towards me. Then he came up and put his hands on the ground on both sides of me like he was about to get out but he just looked at me.
Then Anthony ran out of the house and did a cannonball into the pool. We all laughed. Later on I still had my feet in the pool sitting on the edge while everyone else was swimming when Noah and Blake walked out.
Blake got in the pool and Noah walked over to the end of the pool and sat next to me.

Noah- Hey.
Jessica- Hey.
Noah- why aren't you swimming with everyone else.
Jessica- Oh I can't swim, I never learned.
Noah- Well let's try this.
Noah said while sliding down into the pool. Then he put his hands on my waist and motioned for me to get in.
I hoped in the pool and my feet couldn't even touch the bottom. Noah was still holding me up by my waist then he slowly raped his arms around me.
Noah- All good?
He asked almost like he was scared to speak. I smiled at him.
Jessica- Yeah, all good.
•
Blake and Noah came out and Blake got straight into the pool.
Blake- Gotcha!
He yelled splashing water in my face. Then Anthony splashed Blake and we all laughed.
Blake- Hey check them out.
He said looking over at Jessica. I looked over and Noah was holding her. I immediately got jealous. What is wrong with me?
I got out of the pool and grabbed a towel then went up to my room.
•Jessica's POV•
We were just floating there. Just me and Noah.
Noah- You wanna see how long we can stay under.
Jessica- I don't think
Noah- Relax, I'll keep holding you and I'll bring you back up.
Jessica- k
Noah- just tap me twice when you're ready.
We went underwater for about 12 seconds then he brought me back up and sat me down on the edge of the pool. Then he got out too. That's when I noticed everyone was gone.
Jessica- I'm gonna go dry off.
I told him walking over to some towels that were sat outside. He walked up behind me and grabbed the towel.
Noah- Your clothes are all wet now.
Jessica- Yeah because of you!
I said laughing a little.
Noah- Come on you can come up to my room and grab one of my shirts or something.

The Elder of Mediocrity
In a world of cultivators, psykers, mages, witches, conspiracies and a Cold War, everything is extraordinary. Well, most everything. Oz “Da Shan” Elderweiss is just your average guy in a not average world. He’s not that strong, he’s not that weak — and he’s not getting any better. Da Shan discovers that you’re never too old to have your own coming of age saga. Filled with a burning desire for revenge, but the inability to carry it out, he hatches an insane scheme to change his potential and achieve exponential growth. But his enemies are quite literally the members of his own household and his close friends. He must fight tooth and nail for what he believes in and for the freedom to carve his own path. Join him as he battles people with both the best and worst intentions, with his life on the line. Current Word Count: 136 000, First arc complete. A lot of new content has been added to the early chapters since the end of May. The first chapters are still under construction and editing, but all the major changes are done. I was a webnovel junkie for a long time, but I found it hard to find novels with solid characters, decent plot, philosophical underpinnings and a fully painted world to keep me going. I've taken from every genre I've liked to make a story that satisfies my own cravings for a good story. If you like the story or have suggestions please leave a comment or review. I hope this novel is fun, provocative but above all fun. Enjoy. Yours truly, James Paul Addington PS I will release at least two chapters a week, or one really long chapter. Concerning the tags: The story is primarily Fantasy with Wuxia influence in some elements. Romance won't happen for the first two arcs or so (roughly 40 chapters), I want to build the world before I do that. Tragedy is because of an event that occurs in the book, not the tone of the book. The book is more lighthearted. Slice of Life doesn't occur till the third arc (the romance happens during that arc as well). Magic will also show up more in later arcs, but appears throughout. Reincarnation it's not a reincarnation like in the traditional sense, but it has a similar concept.
